"Delicious veggies! I omitted the sugar as I didn't think it was necessary to achieve a good flavor and I don't like my food sweet. Also it pays to get yourself a good fish sauce for that authentic flavor as well as a premium soy sauce as opposed to the nasty soy sauce you find in most grocery stores. Go to a specialty store or amazon and get a good premium soy sauce, so worth it. Can't wait to make this recipe again!"

"I make a lot of Thai food, and this was simple, delicious, and Asian-tasting. I do think the dressing flavors could have been a little stronger. I used broccoli and carrots; I omitted the other veggies for lack of time."

"Loved the flavors in this salad. The only reason I wouldn't make it again is because I'm terrible at steaming vegetables and mine were too soft. I had to add a little salt, otherwise I thought the ginger-sesame sauce was perfect."
